Embroidery hoop sewing kit

I made this cute little gift a while back. It’s perfect for gift for anyone who sews (or is learning!). A little sewing kit in an embroidery hoop. It’s also a great way to use bits of your favorite fabric. I had seen different types of embroidery hoop sewing kits online but none of them were quite what I wanted. So this embroidery hoop sewing kit was birthed. This isn’t much of a tutorial but you can get an idea of how it’s made just from the photos.

This one happens to be a pretty small hoop but a larger hoop could be fun too. I included a little pocket for small scissors and a seam ripper. There’s another pocket too but it’s mostly just for cute contrast.

I made a small leather needlebook to hang off a button. Might be my favorite part. I’ll write more about that another time.

I used a linen for the background and my current favorite Liberty print as pocket trim. I should have made one for myself. This could solve the whole, “WHERE IS MY SEAM RIPPER??” issue that I have.
